Another branching experiment. This time focusing on how much visual complexity I can generate while maintaining reasonable performance, and some aesthetic appeal.

This experiment generates about half a million individual branch object instances (with about three thousand active at any time), and about 5 million line segments in a minute or two (depending on your CPU speed). Probably not a record of any kind, but neat to see nonetheless.

It’s a little too large to embed here, so you’ll have to click the screenshot below to open the demo. You’ll need a large monitor (> 1200×1200 pixels) and a fast CPU (2ghz+) to view this well.
